Easy now life…don’t take me too hard
I can’t stand to walk so suddenly
into the endless views of nothing
but the results of what my deeds may be.
It seems you’re swapping now…day by day
coming on stronger with pain and pleasure….
Kathi calls it Kansas and Oz
but it just worries me…with no place to fall.
Rose’s name has blown away in the wind
and these others like shadows come and go.
Oz today…Kansas tomorrow.
I feel the flow coming down on me,
my life is hard a-press
and I’m distilled out to where
dreams and reality have come head to head.
Hear me, life…don’t walk so hard.
I want to love you gently…
without bitterness or tears.
